I probably deleted the backlog of post that hinted at severe injury, but if you've been around for a while you'll know that I severely blew my knee in oct.2010. Anyways, I skated past it despite it blowing twice more, one in new Mexico (again! Must be the dry, dehydrating weather) and then once again In the Czech republic. Since newtons 2010 I've had a double sided metal brace on my front leg under my racing leathers and I just made sure that I got down the hill as fast as I could without coming close to falling (slow down before your going too fast!). Well, my fast enough was certainly fast enough in the women's field but if I ever have a chance of being confident in myself in the men's... Then I gotta do what I'm doing today. Kiss the 2012 season pretty much goodbye, and hit the knife at 1:30pm this afternoon for a full reconstruction of my ACL and MCL. If your feeling adventurous and you don't have a week stomach, type both those reconstructions into google images, needless to say, there is a reason I am up at this here 7:30am hour, unable to sleep longer, already starting to feel the hunger pains I can't do anything about since I'm not allowed eating and just genuinely missing the best part of my support team. I'll be trying to stay off my board for at least six months. No weight bearing for 6 weeks, then Rehab like a motherfucker. I'm hoping I can use music and writing to pass the time....
Peace out rabbit
